WTF Is It Now?!?

"Nothing says 'I love you' like a homemade salami!" - crossdressing guest on the Cooking Channel's Molto Mario.

Oh, and I'd like to - mmmmmm - thank, I guess, the comedian who sent me those screamingly homo-erotic pics of Legolas and other assorted elves from LOTR. I sincerely hope they were photoshopped and were not actual scenes from the movie, or that chapter of my fantasy life will have to undergo some serious revisions.


Speaking of photoshop, evidently Colin Powell had some sort of powerpoint show at the UN yesterday. The one slide he glaringly left out, but would have explained so much, was that infamous pic of Osama bin Laden doing Duh-bya doggie-style.


I can't believe Paul Begala and Congressman Kucinich sat there like pithed slugs last night while that grinning jackwipe Dana Rohrabacher kept going on about Saddam's "blood grudge" against the US. Five times he used that phrase, five times he was never called on it. Hey, dickhead: al-Qaeda has a blood grudge against the United States. Al-Qaeda killed 3000 of our people here on 9/11. Yesterday the papers were full of stories that terrorist threats in the US are increasing - threats from al-Qaeda and not from Iraq. Even the FBI is reporting that al-Qaeda still poses the 'most viable' terrorism threat to the United States.

Still, kudos to Kucinich for bringing up the horrific Shock and Awe strategy, and to Eric Alterman who actually used the M-word when talking about rightwingnuts.


KUCINICH: "I'm not saying Saddam Hussein deserves another chance. I'm saying that before we commit 300,000 troops and put our men and women at risk in the field, before we put millions of innocent Iraqis at risk, before we start talking about using nuclear weapons against Iraq, and before we go into the Shock and Awe defense strategy which involves the launch of 8,000 missiles in two days on Baghdad, I would think we should stop war and go forward with inspections.

"Inspections have worked before. We need to contain Hussein. We don't like him. Let's contain him. We don't have to punish the people in Iraq because they have a leader who is unacceptable to the rest of the world." - Crossfire.



Maybe it's just to pick up chicks
Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage tries out his comedy routine, bombs.

Senator Chuck Hagel asked whether North Korea's potential capacity to sell raw materials for nuclear bombs to terrorists made it "far more dangerous" than Iraq.

"It's quite a different situation in Iraq," Armitage replied, saying that Saddam Hussein wanted to "intimidate, dominate and attack" his neighbors.

"We're not quite sure that's the motivation of Kim Jong Il," Armitage said. "I think he wants to use it for economic benefits - sell, barter, whatever." - the NY Times.
